I am sorry, but this is an absolutely insane take that will add a huge amount of work for people for no good reason whatsoever. It's the github master -> main debate all over again. I really hope we are past peak woke now and this won't fly. The amount of hours of work wasted for pointless renaming just has to be accounted somehow.

- DonHopkins 4y agoOh yes, you have a great point, those people are absolutely insane and should be locked up in mental institutions and medicated for not wanting other people to appropriate their name, and the computer industry still hasn't recovered from the destruction and devastation and ruined lives and lost fortunes and hurt feelings from having to rename git branches. /s
- Daishiman 4y agoWay to miss the point.
- DonHopkins 4y agoWay to miss the sarcasm, which I clearly labeled.
- fidgewidge 4y agoYou clearly haven't had the pleasure of wasting half a day here and there due to botched master->main renames, like some of us have. Yes, it was actually net destructive because the actual delivered benefit was zero. Language does not define reality. Reality defines language.
- orra 4y agoEh, companies and organisations regularly rebrand, even if it doesn't always require a name change.
